Successful Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management Implementation at Anest Iwata in just 6 Months

The German sales office in Leipzig, established in 2009, had previously used an outdated solution for order processing. However, this system had significant shortcomings: German financial processes were not integrated, and logistics processes were handled manually. Knowledge about inventory and processes often resided only in the minds of individual employees, posing a risk to the company.

Project Goals and Implementation of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Migration

The project aimed to integrate the German site into the central system within the European tenant, standardize reporting, and digitalize processes. Sycor was responsible for project management, solution architecture, data migration, and role and permission assignments. Close communication with the corporate group in Italy ensured the template was adapted to meet German market requirements.

Implementation of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management

As part of the project, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain were implemented. The customer’s core processes—particularly in supply chain management, sales and order processing, and finance—were significantly impacted and optimized.
The project was completed within the planned timeframe and budget in just six months. In addition to implementation, Sycor also handles ongoing operations. The managed services relieve the IT department by outsourcing most daily administrative tasks.
